Question 1

How does the color extraction work?

Accepted Answer

The tool samples pixels from your image and clusters similar colors together using a quantization algorithm. The most dominant clusters are returned as your palette. This gives you the colors that appear most frequently or visually prominently in the image.

Question 2

What image formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

The tool supports JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and most common browser-supported image formats. For best results, use a high-quality image with the actual colors you want to extract. Very compressed or heavily dithered images may give less accurate palettes.

Question 3

How many colors can I extract?

Accepted Answer

You can extract between 1 and 20 dominant colors. For most branding and design work, 5–8 colors gives a useful, non-redundant palette. For detailed photography analysis, extracting 10–15 colors shows more of the image's tonal range.

Question 4

Is my image uploaded to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device and is not sent to any server.
